Expanding Beyond Borders: Practical Tax Insights for Employers & Employees
In today’s interconnected world, businesses are venturing beyond borders, deploying talents on cross-border assignments to capture growth opportunities. Whether short-term or long-term, these cross-border assignments are transformative for Employers and Employees, but they also bring complex tax considerations.
In this webinar, we shared insights on the key tax considerations across the cross-border assignment lifecycle, from pre-posting preparations, to during-posting compliance, and post-posting reflections.
Special country highlights include:
- Malaysia – Case study on the stamping of employment contracts, following the recent stamp duty announcement. We will explore the compliance requirements, enforcement implications and tax consequences for employers and employees.
- Hong Kong – Time apportionment for income allocation. This session provided practical guidance on how income attributable to services performed in Hong Kong is calculated for employees on cross-border assignments, and key considerations for ensuring fair and compliant tax reporting.
